Lapstone Tunnel.

Line 1.0.0Considerable interest is felt on the western
Line 1.0.1railway line beyond Penrith at the extensive
Line 1.0.2works being carried out on the mountain extension,
Line 1.0.3Fix this textthe more important alteration, the Lapstone
Line 1.0.4tunnel, being much discussed. It is said the
Line 1.0.5cutting away of the zigzag and the tunnelling
Line 1.0.6of Lapstone range will shorten the mountain

Line 2.0.0journey by 40 minutes, which improvement,
Line 2.0.1if accomplished, will render our mountain plateau
Line 2.0.2more popular than ever. It appears, however,
Line 2.0.3that the general opinion strongly favors
Line 2.0.4the enlargement of the Lapstone
Line 2.0.5tunnel to double its proposed size. According to
Line 2.0.6present design the tunnel will carry but a single
Line 2.0.7line of rails, an accommodation which is con-
Line 2.0.8sidered wholly inadequate to the inevitable de-
Line 2.0.9velopment of trade west of the mountains ; and
Line 2.0.10it is thought the commissioners should be assisted
Line 2.0.11by the Government to provide for this increased
Line 2.0.12trade, and so save a vaster expense for enlarge-
Line 2.0.13ment at some future time. It is probable the
Line 2.0.14commissioners will be requisitioned on the matter.
